its called Beyond Tells:Power Poker Pshycology by James A. Mckenna, and it goes behind the tells and into the phsycology of poker and the people that play, it explains the different types of people and their most likely mannerism based on how they act and present themselves at the table....recommended greatly, a good read, pick it up asap

ummm its basically more for live games, but it can be applied to online i guess if u can get a read on how ur opponent plays and relate that to how he or she wud act in real life...its hard to explain, but yes it is more target toward live...it discusses the mindsets and beliefs of different types of people such as the high rollers, the hunch player, the party hardy, the system player and even the boss(know it all, always having opinion)....but all in all, if u play live...this is a neccessity and should be used along side caro's tells

Excerpt. FYI.
Have you read the 2+2 book "The Psychology of Poker"? If you have, how does it compare?

lol best way to get a bang for you buck is if you're in college take a psychology class as an elective a long with a game theory math class...  College credits while learning how to play poker bettor... 
Sorry little off topic, but it sort of pertains to the concept of learning psychology...
